YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR

I will start with the positive: The small size of the campus and student body was helpfull in a couple differant ways.  For one, you were able to see friends often and didn't feel overwelmed by the amount of students.  I made good friends there and many of us still keep in contact three years after graduation.  Second, it was easy to ask questions because class sizes were normally kept to 20-25 students.  The size of the campus also made it easy to get around between classes and dorms.

On the other hand, there were areas that Eastern needs to improve.  For me, the academics were not challenging.  I found most of the classes to be uninspiring and I sensed that most of the faculty AND students just weren't interested.  Even my advisor acted as if I was a bother to him when I came with questions.  Furthermore, Eastern lacks a strong reputation and network in the CT business community.  As a business student, I hadn't realized how important this was till my junior year.  This made it difficult when looking for internships and jobs. 

In summary I will say this:

If you are interested in education, playing college baseball, or an easy degree, then Eastern may be a good fit.  For anyone else, I would look at other options before you make your decision.
